‘Am I really that unattractive?’
The beautiful woman in front of him disappeared before his eyes.
The heartbroken teacher could only helplessly stroke his stubbled chin.
If it were in the past, he might have even said a few jokes to lighten the mood.
However, looking at the white flower and letter in his hand, the teacher couldn’t laugh at all.
He had not forgotten his purpose for coming here today, which was to inform Su Ran of Eve’s death in the long city.
After composing himself, he knocked on the door a few more times.
“Miss Su Ran, hello, can you open the door again and give me a chance to talk?”
“You came to someone’s door out of the blue and refused to leave, I’m going to call the police!”
A clear voice came from inside, and even when chasing someone away, it maintained a pleasant tone.
The only flaw in Su Ran’s heart was that she was determined not to open the door.
In fact, if the teacher had thought from Su Ran’s perspective, he would have been able to understand the other party’s thoughts.
According to her words, she didn’t seem to know the name of Beizhou Academy at all.
Then the sudden appearance of someone at her door was indeed very suspicious.
In order to complete the task given by the school today, the teacher thought for a moment and came up with a compromise.
“Miss Su Ran, how about this, I’ll put the things at the door, please take them yourself. I’ve left a contact method on it. If you want to know more, then contact us and we can arrange a time to meet outside.”
The teacher had also encountered girls like Su Ran during his teaching process, so he tried his best to make his words sincere, hoping that this would express his lack of ill will.
The room fell silent for a moment.
Su Ran seemed to be considering whether to answer.
The teacher stood silently at the door, waiting for the other party’s response.
“Leave the things.”
After a moment of thought, since the other party had already said so much, Su Ran finally decided to let the other party leave the things behind.
After all, in the man’s mouth, he mentioned Eve’s name.
It seemed that the things were somewhat related to Eve.
“Okay, then I’ll leave the things here. If you have any questions, you can contact me again.”
Seeing that Su Ran had agreed, the teacher took out a pen from his clothes and left the school’s contact information.
After that, he left the white flower and the letter outside Su Ran’s door.
When the sound of the man leaving came from outside the door, Su Ran did not intend to go to the door to get the things.
Anyway, there weren’t many residents coming and going on this floor.
Su Ran planned to wait until she finished meditating before going to get the things.
With her eyes slowly closed, Su Ran calmed down and continued to meditate, absorbing the surrounding magic essence.
Inside the treatment room of the Northern Border Defense City, there was a strong smell of disinfectant.
After Bai Yun was sent here, Nie Ping did not leave, but found a clean spot on the edge of the bed to meditate.
Even though the three Earls had not yet shown up, their aura had not disappeared.
They were still waiting for an opportunity in the formation of the blood slaves.
The blood slaves were unknowingly attacking the Northern Border Defense City.
The blood s*ave troops were currently engaged in a fierce battle with the blood slaves.
From time to time, someone would fall or be injured.
There were injured soldiers everywhere in the treatment room, and even the chairs were occupied by injured soldiers.
As the commander of a city, to be reduced to the point of scrambling for a place with an injured person, Nie Ping naturally couldn’t laugh.
“The Earl of Blood hasn’t appeared yet, why are you still staying here? Not resting?”
The one who spoke was Bai Yun, who was lying on the bed.
Ever since Nie Ping had sent her here, he had not left.
After he stopped burning his magic essence, her complexion improved a lot, but her withered white hair showed no sign of returning to normal.
“Instead of resting where you are, it’s better to rest here. What the Northern Border Defense City lacks most now is time.”
In the situation where he had lost the trump card of the magic essence cannon and Bai Yun was unable to fight again, Nie Ping would have to face three Earls alone.
His lips pursed slightly, and his originally somewhat heavy expression now showed a bit of solemnity.
“Commander, did you say the city’s walls have problems on the road?”
Bai Yun’s voice was very soft, but Nie Ping, who had the White Emperor as a barrier, could still barely hear her words.
Nie Ping didn’t answer Bai Yun’s question directly, but answered with a question.
“What do you think?”
This topic didn’t have much substance.
Bai Yun clearly understood Nie Ping’s meaning.
Except for the border defense cities, the other cities on the surface only have Sequence Six powerhouses.
In the case of the Northern Border Defense Line being breached, these Sequence Six combatants would be constrained by various reasons even if they wanted to provide support, and would be unable to leave easily.
They could only wait helplessly.
“Now we can only wait for the news of the high-level sequence arriving from the evacuation to reach the Northern Border Defense City. A Sequence Seven powerhouse should be able to arrive quickly.”
Now they could only hope that the reinforcements from the Human Federation could arrive quickly.
It would be best if they arrived before the three Earls had recovered their combat power.
On the city walls of the Northern Border Defense City, the roars of humans and blood slaves and the flames of war engulfed the entire city.
A corner of the city wall that had been torn open by the blood s*ave troops was now retaken by the defending troops’ counterattack.
Under human command, they promptly cut off the retreat route of those attacking the Northern Border Defense City.
The three Earls who had retreated from the battlefield were not too bothered by the injuries on their bodies after this period of rest.
Especially after swallowing the pills given by Baron Tate, the magic essence burns on their bodies almost disappeared.
This made them feel a kind of novelty towards the medicine in Baron Tate’s hands.
They only needed a small pill to recover all their injuries.
Facing the curious gazes of the two, Baron Tate knew what they wanted to explain.
He directly said frankly, “This pill is not my own. Earl Leng was worried that we would be injured during the mission, so he gave me the pill and asked me to bring it for you.”
After Baron Tate said this, the two of them also understood what was going on.
They secretly dispelled the idea of wanting a few more pills.
Earl Fol’s attention returned to the young nobles who had been forced to the city wall and were being beaten.
“Some of the young nobles have already lost their minds and are rushing into the Northern Border Defense City. Now they want to retreat and make a big fuss.”
Seeing that some of the young nobles with captives and spoils of war wanted to return the way they came, they were surrounded by humans and trapped under the city wall.
Earl Leng was not in a hurry to save the young nobles.
The blood slaves needed a bit of courage.
What really made Earl Fol anxious were the captives and spoils of war in the hands of the young nobles.
Because some of the spoils of war obtained from these young nobles were to be handed over to them.
Otherwise, if they were trapped in the human encirclement for a long time, it would be inevitable that these nobles would abandon their captives and leave alone.
In this way, Earl Fol’s own losses would not be small.
Coming to the Northern Border Defense City this time, besides the order from a higher level, the biggest attraction for the Earls was that they could easily plunder the spoils of war from the young nobles.
It was originally supposed to be an easy job to cross the Northern Border Defense City, but who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, it would turn into a siege battle.
The three of them didn’t get any benefits in the Northern Border Defense City, and they were even injured.
If even the spoils of war from these young nobles were lost, that would be a double loss.
“What a loss!”
Compared to the anxious Earl Fol, who was jumping up and down on the spot, Earl Tate, who had lost his suppression and returned to Sequence Six, was leisurely standing in the air.
Among the three of them, because he was suppressed and couldn’t move before, he stood behind the three of them at the same time.
Therefore, the magic weapon injuries on his body were the slightest, and he had preserved most of his strength.
With his hands behind his back, he said with confidence and calmness, “Don’t worry, I will make a move!”
